I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

It sounds to me like you've already decided on the non-loft place, Matt.

Actually, more or less the opposite. I'm trying to see if I can talk myself out of the irresponsible thing: paying more for the apartment that I'll be really happy with for the next 5-10 years.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Not sure how that counts as irresponsible, actually.

If you take the larger, less classy place, you're not likely to be stuck in it for that long.

If you take the smaller, prettier place, the lack of space will drive you bonkers long before the 5-10 year mark.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I say keep looking if at all possible. Maybe the perfect compromise is out there.

"I am the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world"

It can be a problem. One of my neighbors spent 700 bucks on an astral projection class.

I found a book lying around at work, most likely from the late 80's or early 90's. It was written by someone who claimed they went to Harvard. It was a "How to be Psychic!" book. It was all I could do not to take the book and leave a note saying "If you really are psychic then you already know where I've hidden your book."

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Casper continues to be utterly adorable.

I'm with Robin in voting to keep looking. That's a lot of space to lose.

Ye gads was today rough. I don't know why, I'm a hideous beast today. Hormones? Demonic possession? Not a clue.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

On the Marvel costumes I have to note the women modeling the green suited Phoenix and Black Widow are frickin' gorgeous.

Good looking Bishop too.

Casper's pure genius! I want to give her thousands of dollars just to be Casper all the time.

Nutty, I think you should hook up with bon who knows a thing or two about shooting. Maybe you could roam around Manhattan shooting up zombie wall street financiers.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Okay. My next door neighbor is out on the shared back porch, smoking a cigarette and talking to somebody on the phone and just said: "Disclaimer: I want to have sex with you on psychedelics." And then she started to sob and then she started to laugh and now she's talking again.
